The event is uniquely focused on fog computing use cases, architecture, standards, developments and research. Use cases will highlight how fog and edge are enabling advanced digital applications in IoT, 5G and AI. Applications in smart cities, transportation, robotics, smart energy and manufacturing will be explored.

“The speaker lineup and topics for this year’s conference are designed to address the challenges in fog computing, including security, interoperability and standards – and its impact on the industry,” said Helder Antunes, Chairman of the OpenFog Consortium and Senior Director, Cisco. “The subsequent discussions will be critical to driving standards, evolving the industry and unlocking the full potential of fog,” said Antunes, who will also deliver one of the keynotes at Fog World Congress.

The current schedule of keynotes includes Robert MacInnis, CEO of ActiveAether, Mung Chiang, Dean of the College of Engineering at Purdue University, Ashish Nadkarni, Group Vice President of IDC, and Tao Zhang, Visiting Chair Professor, National Chiao Tung University. More keynotes are being confirmed.
